London badge to drive in Manc

New Member

hi guys,
I live in manchester, wish to drive in manchester but i was talk to many drivers here as to have the badge in london is not as difficult as in manchester.
My question is that is it possible to have the badge in london even if i don’t live there but in manc?
I was try to sign up the ignition session of uber in london but 3years of driving experience required in the uk, i have a year of experience here but more than 20years at all. Thanks for your replys.

Yes you would be classed as self-employed. Don't worry about tax. You would have to earn over £11,500 per year to pay tax. You will not earn that much money.
You will have to pay National Insurance though.

Is it means, that i have to take my gross income and deduct all costs like fuel, rental fee of the car, etc and the rest is my net income as will not reach up to £11.500/year?
How about the cut of uber? Is this amount can be deducted of the gross income as well?
Am i have to notify hmrc as im a self emloyed?
